[meta-xilinx] Can Xilinx SDK (XSDK - Eclipse IDE) be integrated with Yocto SDK?

[Brian Hutchinson]

Thanks for the replies and ideas.

I forgot to mention it in the original email but my main concern is
with some things I "heard" but haven't experienced yet.  I'm aware
that the Xilinx SDK (and the Petalinux tools etc.) use a fixed Linaro
toolchain while Yocto+meta-xilinx default to building a gcc toolchain.
I've "heard" that this can cause problems when trying to use XSCT and
tcf-agent stuff ... debuggers etc. in the Xilinx SDK while using
rootfs and user space apps built with Yocto.

This makes me wonder if I should just give up on using Xilinx SDK
(would need to use gdb and other debug tools in that case I guess -
which could upset some folks) and make folks that insist on using an
IDE for application development to use plain Eclipse (or with Yocto
plugin) or make Yocto builds use external Linaro toolchain to make
deliverables that will work with whatever version of toolchain the
Xilinx SDK is using.

These are all new decisions/issues I've not had to contemplate before
we started using Zync stuff.

Regards,

Brian
